>literally dreading the fact that I have to draw after workThis is probably why I never improve
>>8053052Because I want to make money
>>8053349you must be mentally retarded if you think drawing is a good way to make money
>>8053052Gaming is too expensive for a third worlder like me, need to find some hobby that's affordable
>>8053349You picked pretty much the worst possible way of doing that
>>8053349Why did you pick the medium that literally created the phrase "starving artist"?If you want to make money get into a trade, strive for a six figure income and sell options in the stock market. You'll be able to retire in ten years if you're frugal, don't have kids, and don't live in a country that's going to collapse.
who are your professional artist inspirations? people with art books published, you know
>>8052940gay shit taste
>>8053009this but unironically
>>8052745Only with art books?Akihito TsukushiRyota MurayamaCarles DalmauAki YehuoKamome ShirahamaYoh Yoshinari
>>8053009I've seen what you people cheer. Your boos mean nothing
>>8052750What a dumb take. Sam Kieth, Mike Mike Mignola, and Bernie Wrightson were all influenced by Frazetta but went three completely different directions from that starting point
I can only draw if I use little construction-worker men to help me out. Where I place them gives me a better sense of space and perspective.
Just some construction-y type stuff as I'm sketching tonight, less little guys too, the one at the front is like the overseer or something lol
>>8053227This is the funniest beg thread I've seen in a while.
you know what if it works it works. I may be lolling, other's lmaoing, but if it makes you better, you better do it.
I got some little painter guys to work also. Eh, it doesn't really work for paint :). I need some other way for color, a similar sort of cheat (you know instead of actual hard work ehe)

I found this book that contains a bunch of gun poses. On the cover, there are two drawings, but I have no idea who made these. Therefore, I wanted to ask if someone here knows who this might be and where I can find more, because I'm very much interested in the specific stylization used here, and would like to study it as much as possible. I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone knows it or speaks Korean enough to find it?link to the book: https://gofile.io/d/Hj7ADzXXOther than that, what are some similar stylizations? I mean where it's slightly toned down instead of the humongous rounded eyes and shit you usually see in manga. I know Fujimoto, specifically in his oneshot "sisters" has a somewhat similar style, but who else?

This is a nice piece of art
>>8050132Why can't we hate kikes AND mudslimes? I'll never understand channers going pro-Israel to own the libs
>>8050235I am not trying to own the libs, I simply think that muslims are probably worse than blacks.Anyway, you have to admit that homosexuals siding with islam are so stupid, that if I didn't see it I'd not believe it happened, and yet it looks the common thing. They own themselves.

ITT: Cool outfitsEnough draperies. Let's build a good fashion sense to clothe our figs.
Chat tends to throw up denim and thick t-shirts on women, but with enough patience you can add your own clothes.
>>8053339Some nice Italian jeans but leaning more to geekchic
>>8053336wanted to put Rachel into the WandaVision Scarlet Witch outfit but of course it got blocked.
ew AI sloppa
Is my brand new Pentel Pocket Brush Pen broken? It makes very dry lines, which kinda works for cool texture, but I don't think it is supposed to be like this.
paper, retard
brush pens SUCK
zainichi brush, sir
Looks cooler that way how can I break mine?
Have there ever been cases of legitimately great digital artists who have been drawing and posting for a decade or more never getting more than a few thousands followers online at best?
>>8041997That's not true for all of them. Some are incredible illustrators that would shit on everyone here.
>>8041928I rather have 10 followers who pay me to draw, than 1k followers who watch me draw. My hobby pays me and that makes me the happiest boy.
>>8041965>Why is it always followers count and social media exposure for you niggers? Both of these things are easy to translate into money>Or drawing simply because you like to draw in itself????You can draw way more if you get to draw for money, seems like a no brainer really.
>>8050705If you even slightly consider your words to be true I'm afraid you will never make it.A following is but a byproduct of an initiative that is recognized. To be recognized in itself is not a goal. To be recognized by itself is not even a positive thing as opposed to the value you wish to extract from said recognition (aka >90k followers but they're all Chinese/Indian and do nothing but make AI models of your work to generate feet pictures).If you wanted money you could do other things for less effort, live amicably and then drawfag what you'd like (possibly being recognized in the process). If you wanted love and attention you could do things for people who are near and meaningful to you (possibly becoming an irreplaceable artisan in your culture of choice). But no, you've decided to be a stupid motherfucker who saw 1-2 artists with a following (without knowing them personally) then somehow grew envious of their position without understanding how they got there. Now I gotta read this sort of bullshit before you vainly disappear into nothing - hoping nobody actually heard you - as you draw your final pathetic breath.
I'm seconding this. >>8041989 Back when I was on tumblr, I ended up following one artist who turned out to be an actual illustrator for Magic cards. But their posts would never go above 150 likes. I'm reminded of them whenever I or someone conflate online popularity with skill or sucess.

>>8054211Better than the pregnancy slop
>>8054221I wouldn't go that far
>>8054211I just realized the black one is just a negative image of the whtie one.
I think I need to warp the reflection in the ball more.>>8053583You're right. I'll try to push my notebook doodles a little more especially with adding / implying details with ink lines and pencils.>>8054139Nice art
>>8054276I think the figure is sitting a little flat against the wall and it feels a little 2D. You might be correct in the position a figure can take when viewed straight on like that, but in a drawing it sort of disappears into the medium. What works in a photo won't always work in a drawing. Sometimes the best approach is to turn the figure at an angle to better convey that 3D-ness. Here's a quick red line if it's helpful to you.
you ARE participating in #Inktober2026 aren't you?

>>8052737if the shekel per goyim index is too low you produce lower quality work. Time is a function of days not hours for humans and if you want somthing that looks raelly nice the person making it has to get lots of regular sleep and other normal nigga things or their work will suffer.There's a reason china cannot produce swiss quality watches. Happy Humans work much better, but much slower as a result. and third worlders are not happy.
>>8053029the days thing is so true. i can draw for 5 hours and get a lot done, or I can draw for one hour, I'm still tired the same amount at the end of the day.
>>8053055I wish I had learned it earlier. When i was younger I did 5 hours a day once a week cuz of my schedule. Had I been smarter I'd worked to make one hour a day five days a week possible.
3d modeling is literally magici also dont know why they can't just make a fully original, realistic and rigged 3d model with 20.000 different preset expression and poses in just 8 hours
I am too retarded to go from left to right. Fuck I cant even draw left because I cant draw proportions most of the time and shit comes out looking like Quasimodo.Is this shit really what I need to stop being a permabeg?How do YOU draw a face in 3d?
>>8050766as noob i always do it like this...
>>8050766there is no "anime head construction" its a cartoon, things are exaggerated for effect without regard for what it would look like if it was a 3d object
N-nobody helped me...
>>8051448Like the OP image you start with a box. View the head as a box and not just a sphere and draw it from various angles, getting the perspective right. As a beginner you are not going to be able to tell whether the boxes are perfect or not, so also copy photos or even anime heads, but instead of just copying the 2d shapes try to draw a box around them and work out how the box perspective interacts with facial features.Once you see improvement increase the complexity of the box. Add brows, cheeks, and jaws. Increase the complexity until you get the Asaro head. The asaro head will be your new best friend. Draw it from every angle. Draw it from memory. Compare it to photos and even anime heads and see how the planes fall into place.Marco Bucci has a decent head drawing course on how the various features interact and are arranged into a cohesive 3d shape, but it's paid.
>Not a single anon has posted their workAmazing.
What would exactly happen if you first learn how to draw in a detailed western comic book art style before switching to an anime-based one?
You'll go from making great art to shitty art.
>>8044361That was me pretty much. Well it depends on what kind of artist you are. Some westerners struggle with learning an anime style
>>8044361It will get easier to delve into composition if you're working with manga-style elements and 135kg kent paper instead of bristol. Your work will also read faster if you adopt manga technique of panelling.
>>8044361your premise has no content
interesting
Anyone else see AI stuff flooding art marketplaces? Touristy places like this are now filled with AI art for sale, probably because they get to keep 100% of the profits. They also don't disclose it's AI, is this reportable somehow? For all the talk about solidarity with artists, there doesn't seem to be any in real life.
>>8050397Saw it on a chinese restaurant, just the most obviously AI cute chinese girls framed on the wall outside. Tackier than wallpaper. Imagine seeing a displate metal poster in a museum, thats the feeling it gives.
>>8050397i hate this shit. Idk about the rest of the internet retards but i remember when the aibros were being faggots and saying "break the pencil" and "ai art is superior, it does things better and faster" with cunts 'improving' artists art without permissionand now because of the backlash that they themselves generated (lol), they try to hide their ai slop as real.they're the bootleg dvd sellers of the modern age but they think their bootlegs should be worth as much as a retail copy of the movie.for obligatory food analogy, if McDonalds wanted $30 for 2 buns and a paper thin patty like they're some 5 star dining experienceneed a metronome meme for aibros>delusional gloating>begging for acceptance
>>8052814i figured that AI slop would become the corn syrup or seed oils of the entertainment industry: it's everywhere because it's cheap, and the average person will consume it, but its mere inclusion is results in negative opinions from consumers and at least some people will go out of their way to avoid it. thus, brands will try their hardest to minimize visibility of slop usage
>>8052814>one of the core arguments against immigration is that it's damaging to the culture of the country...do you think someone in politics is trying to stop immigration? lol?
>>8050580not sure if the nigga who edited this gets the idea of homelander. But considering he made to resemble the thing he's immatating to sell products and not morality I guess it's an apt person to look up tooThough they could be a edgelord for the sake of fitting in
So like a few months ago.I made a thread where I asked if I can get a higher quality version of the newest bridgman complete guide to drawing from life. Because the other more popular newer one sucked ass compared to the older bridgman books. Then some kind anon offered me it but only if I post my work on bridgman. So, I did.https://warosu.org/ic/thread/7985647Then after getting my hands on it. I did some research, which I discovered that this particular version doesn't exist on all book piracy sites. Which means that anon and I have been holding what is essentially "lost media". At first I was excited, but that means If I deleted this file then that it would be lost forever. So, I uploaded it online as of right now. https://www.mediafire.com/file/q30jzfp6bnzbbnq/George+Bridgman+-+Bridgman's+Complete+Guide+to+Drawing+From+Life+(5th+Edition).pdf/fileHowever, it isn't enough. I wanted this to be first spread around to /ic/ then onto most popular book piracy sites.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I remember that thread and I downloaded that copy so it lives on a couple hard drives somewhere
>>8052370>lost media>available on amazon
>>8052370I bought a copy. copied it twice. and now I am a draw god.
>>8052370I assume the link is malware?
complete guide isn't that great because it attempts to be a one-stop shop for everything but falls short because it can't fit everything in, go with the individual books and maybe have complete guide on the side as a reference book
